| Chaplin's living room. His beloved pipe organ is at far left behind the couch. |

The main hallway, which evidently ran the length of the house, is covered with black and white checkered carpet.
The wrought iron gates open into a tea room with arched windows that look out onto the back lawn (see the windows from the outside here). |

Aerial view of the back of the house before the tennis court was built in 1929.
Chaplin's pool is near the bottom of the photo at the end of a long walkway. |

I love these - I try to picture Chaplin and Goddard lounging around in these environments.
ReplyDeleteFor a fellow who's life had been mostly transient surroundings, he sure knew how to make a real 'home' for himself. I'm impressed with the place.
ReplyDeleteHis home was absolutely beautiful, often wondered what has become of this place recently
